* KAPPA SQUADRON REPORT * MAJ Tempest * June 21st, 2003 *
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

Welcome to the newest Kappa Squadron report.
Sovereign League Round 7 ended yesterday, and for the first time I was
able to send six submissions, as all Kappans participated in this
round. Very good work peeps, I think this will be enough to keep or
even strengthen our position on the table so far.
There's now one mission left in the regular season, and I hope you'll
fly equally good for that one... see orders section for more.

Also, you can still sign up for the General's Summer Patrol. That
competition from Stele requires you to fly seven missions per week,
over two months. If you do that without fail, you'll get an IS-GW in
the end. I personally decided to not participate, for with the SL, the
squad-managing, running the TIB competition (if that will happen, atm
it looks I won't get enough participants), and, last but not least,
exams coming up soon, I'd drop out pretty fast anyway.
But for those if you with more time at their hands, this might be an
opportunity. See orders section.

Deadline for the TIB seeding mission FT 3 is tomorrow. Although I
moved the deadline already, I still haven't got the necessary minimum
of 16 pilots, so if I don't get some more submissions soon, the
competition will be cancelled.

And another note, I'm sorry that I couldn't update the Kappa pages
recently, but minos is down since over a week now. What the heck is
going on there?

- We're now in the 8th and last round of the SL playoff phase. I know,
I said that already last week, but that's just because I read that
mail from Tod wrong. :P
So, *now* it's the last round... give your best, mission assignment
in the orders section.

Squadron Orders
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

- Fly TIE-Free 218 (attached) for the Sovereign League, Round 8.
Deadline is July 4th. This is the last round of the playoff phase,
so do your best one more time!

- Fly TIE-Free 3 (attached) for Tempest's Imperial Battlechess. This
playoff mission is to assign all the participating pilots to one of
the two teams. Deadline is tomorrow, Sunday, June 22nd, midnight GMT.
Submissions go to me. I'd be glad to have a high participation from
Kappa in this.
Find the rules at http://tib.minos.net (and as long as minos is
down, http://www.stud.tu-ilmenau.de/~anho-in/TIB/TIB_rules.htm).
You might want to bookmark that addy, for I'll also use it for
publishing results and current game standings as the comp goes on.

- If you think you can keep up the pace of this comp, sign up for the
General's Summer Patrol. As there were some problems with signing up
on the wing page (minos being down), e-mail Stele directly
(tieknt@juno.com) if you want to participate, and ASAP.
